This COULD be interesting, especially now that actual ACTIVE ROSTER activity will be reduced DRAMATICALLY due to the loss of Streaks/Slumps. We will not see teams NEEDING so many players on their Pro rosters, because they'll just be playing their top 20 guys (barring injury) for ALL 80 GAMES !!! (HOW BORING CAN IT GET !!!)
However, INJURIES do make make this system problematic; you'd have to include an "injury" clause, that allows for the movement of players up from the farm team in the case of injuries depleting your roster. Admittedly, the chance of having 6 players injured at the same time is remote, BUT not impossible.
